Every release removes / breaks stuff in the standard library and has been for a while. That's because prior to ~3.2 or so, deprecations were basically never followed up on, but now deprecation means it's going to be removed. E.g. Python 3.12 has deprecated datetime.utcnow(). So it will probably be removed in Python 3.14 or 3.15. For all intents and purposes, "Python 3" is now the brand and "Python 3.x" releases are major, breaking releases.
